What’s the Best Massage Chair for a Tall Person?

While most massage chairs are designed with a range of body types in mind, there are a few key features that stand out when it comes to taller frames.

49” L-track: The L-shaped track that runs along your spine is the anchor point for much of a massage chair’s mechanisms, and 49” is the longest track available on the market.

Body scanning: This intelligent technology will detect your body’s pressure points, which are unique to your frame and musculature. Using this information, the massage chair’s rollers will adjust to target those areas.

Extendable footrest: Even if a massage chair can accommodate most of your height, the last thing you want is for your feet to be dangling off the footrest. Explore models with extendable ottomans or footrests, so you know your feet won’t be left hanging.

Foot rollers/Reflexology: If you’re going to be on the lookout for an extendable footrest, it stands to reason you’d want it to come with massage benefits. Look for massage chairs that advertise foot or calf rollers, or that include a targeted reflexology program.

Size specifications: Make sure to check the massage chair’s reclined size dimensions, often included in a Details or Specifications section on a website. It’s best to look for reclined dimensions at or above 72” long x 36” high. For reference, 72” = 6’.

Zero gravity: Massage chairs with a zero gravity feature can recline until your body is horizontal to the floor, which relieves pressure on your spine and results in a weightless sensation. It’s great for full-body relaxation!

Now that you know what features to look for, explore our top ten picks for massage chairs for taller people.
